Sugar Bytes: Egoist,Cyclop and Turnado in apeMatrix! - Daveypoo, The Mobile Music Minstrel
Sugar Bytes reached out to me and asked if I'd do some videos, so here goes nothing! Today I focus on Egoist, Cyclop and Turnado and I spin as wicked a groove as I can.
Comments
That was really cool. First time I can hear something good comming out of Turnado.
@Daveypoo: Are you going to make an Effectrix video too?
Have they announced an AUv3 version of Effectrix yet?
That may be the reason why almost nobody talks about it here.
In 2018, iMusicians mostly want Fx to be AUv3 and therefore multi-instance, right?
@rs2000 Yeah, I'll most likely end up with an Effectrix video - I'd like to talk about Unique and Wow filter as well. They have not announced any further AU versions that I know of, however I wouldn't be surprised as that seems to be where they are headed and I'm all for it. Effectrix and Wow as AU would be wicked.
The only one I don't really get on with at the moment is Thesys. I feel like there's a lot there under the hood, but I'm having trouble sussing out how I might apply it to a track...
Turnado can be a more standard effect (i.e. more subtle) if you really take time to dial it in, but it goes to straight to madness out of the box. Check out my other videos on apeMatrix to see me using Turnado more. I like it a lot, but it took ti r for me to really get it.
Thesys is the first SB creation I've purchased.

Although you can use it as a "normal" pattern sequencer, its strength is very much on the experimental side, with separate randomizers for note/rhythm/modulation and performance tweaks.
First off, you really need a stylus or pencil to use it. Zooming only works if you have precise fingers
There are many ways of using it, you could learn how the performance row works and enter dedicated modulators on specific steps, but a good start is to choose a scale, roughly draw a melody in the pitch row, hit the randomizer in the performance row until what you hear sounds remotely acceptable for your taste, then you fine-tune the performance steps.
What's good is that you can pre-define the scale and gate/velocity so the melodic range and rhythm won't change if you don't want it to.
It's a powerful concept that pays to spend some time with it, and the bottom control keyboard can be controlled by an external MIDI keyboard, plus MIDI clock in/out sync allows for coupling it with hardware sequencers or your desktop DAW.
Lots of real-time control too.
